Imagine
discovering a secret SO nuts that it COMPLETELY does your helix in
and makes your worms pop out of your mush in a TOTAL
muddle.

This is what
happens to Sophie.

Sophie Nieuwenleven is sort of English and sort
of Belgian. Sophie and her family came to live in Belgium when she
was only four or five years old, but she's fourteen now and has
never been quite sure why they left England in the first place.
Then, one day, Sophie makes a startling discovery. Finally Sophie
can unlock the mystery of who she really is. This is a story about
identity and confusion - and feeling so utterly freaked out that
you just can't put it into words. But it's also about hope. And the
belief that, somehow, everything will work out OK.

SOPHIE SOMEONE is a tale of well-intentioned but
stupid parenting, shock, acceptance and, ultimately, forgiveness,
written in a brave, memorable and unique language all of its
own.
